Parenting & Stress Survey – Lancaster University

Parenting and Stress Survey

Kate Buchan and Charlie Lewis of Lancaster University are conducting a study investigating the relationships between the decisions that parents make, the roles they fulfil and their feelings of strain. They would be grateful for participation from a variety of different types of parent (resident and non resident), especially those in which the father is highly involved in child care. They are also keen for both parents to complete the task if possible individually.

This is a completely anonymous survey and should only take 5-7 minutes to complete. Kate and Charlie will write
a brief report on the findings for this website in the future.

To take plart, all you have to do is access the survey via their website. It should be fun – and could stimulate really interesting conversations afterwards, if BOTH OF YOU DO IT.
